[NTG-context] While wiki is down (1): footnotes question
Hi all, I am pretty sure tha answer has to be on the wiki... I have this at the beginning of a paper in order to indicate my institution name, email, etc: \setupfootnotes [conversion=set 3] After that: \setupfootnotes [conversion=numbers] But the standard footnotes begin at 3 (there are two starred footnotes before) while I would like to see them beginnig at 1 of course.

My life has taken a dramatic turn for the better since I figured out how to move Hans' Scite property files to my Ubuntu installation of Scite. Wow, it's like night and day between the distro defaults and Hans' setup where F7 builds my page and shows me the output in a side pane. Also get pretty line numbers, and a nice grey syntax highlighting scheme. Now I see why Hans like Scite. It's eminently pimpable. Anyone wanting to try this can copy any file name *.properties files from the scite directory on Hans' Context for Windows package off the Pragma server to /usr/share/scite (as root). It's that easy. Holler if you want me to post a zip of the property files.

Re: [NTG-context] New Member Introductory Rant
I would seem that ConTeXt has a natural market in web developers who are used to writing structured documents for layout engines. Personally, I'd like to see a Drupal module that will ConTeXtify a person's website as a book or magazine for printing. How great would it be to have an automatically updating e-book for print and screen generated off your website's content based on your tags/taxonomy. Just add FortheBook tag to an article, and without one having to do any more, it will appear in the PDF available on the front page of your site. There is a LaTeX module for Drupal, but I haven't tried it. I think such a module would help to whet other web developer's appetite for ConTeXT. Have you looked at http://wiki.contextgarden.net/HTML_and_ConTeXt which explains how Saji converted a wiki to (informl) to pdf using ConTeXt. I do not know about Drupal, but similar thing should work. There is also Pandoc which can convert Markdown syntax to ConTeXt. It can also convert html to markdown, so in principle you can use it as html to context converter. (Of course, with this approach you are limited to only things which markdown can capture).

[NTG-context] Sections, cross-references and separators
Dear all,
I am confused. Here is a minimal version of my problem:
---
\setupheads[separator=] %-- this can't be right
\setupreferencing[state=start,chapternumber=yes,global=yes]
\setupsection[section-1][conversion=Characters]
\setupsection[section-2][previousnumber=yes]
\setuphead[part][placehead=yes,resetnumber=yes,page=no]
\setuphead[chapter][page=no]
\setuphead[section][number=no]
\setuppagenumbering[partnumber=no]
\starttext
\placelist[part,chapter,section][alternative=b,partnumber=no]
\part[ptest]{Ptest}
\chapter[ctest]{Ctest}
\section[stest]{Stest}
See \in{Chapter}[ctest] (should say A1) and \in{Figure}[ftest] (should
say A1.1).
\placefigure[here][ftest]{Ftest (should be called A1.1)}{}
\stoptext
---
What I am aiming for is a style where:
Parts are labelled A, B, C [done],
Chapters are labelled A1, A2, A3 [done, but...],
Cross-references to Chapters call them A1, A2, A3 [not done: I'm
getting A.1]
Figures are labelled A1.1, A1.2 [not done; I'm getting A.11 (eek!)]
Cross-references to Figures call them A1.1, A1.2 [not done: I'm
getting A.11]
It seems to me that the line
\setupheads[separator=]
can't possibly be right and is almost certainly causing the missing dot
in the Figure number, but it was the only way I could find to remove the
dot between the A and the 1 in the chapter label. I have toiled a little
with the core-ref code and cannot fathom how any of the variety of uses
of the word separator make sense, or indeed if they really have
anything to do with it... :-)
I'm testing on the garden, using pdfTeX. I'd be *really* grateful for
some help with this one.
Thanks,
Duncan

while under opensuse and freebsd i get
1,1,1,1,1

If in defineenumeration[anenumeration] I specify text={\bfc Title}

Are Opensuse and freebsd using an older version of ConTeXt? (ctxtools
--contextversion should tell the context version). There was a bug in
enumeration and conversions which was fixed around the middle of last
year.
Another little question
If in defineenumeration[anenumeration] I specify text={\bfc Title}
and
\startanenumeration{\bfc The History}\stopanenumeration
Title and The History are not properly aligned (The History is in
higher position).
What's wrong?
\bfc does not correct interline spacing. If you notice, the Title is
aligned at the top to the rest of the text.
\showmakeup
% \defineenumeration[test][location=left,text={\bfc Title}]
\defineenuemration[test][location=left,text={Title},headstyle={\bfc}]
\starttext
\starttest
{\bfc Test} This is a test \input knuth
\stoptest
\stoptext
To get alignment you can do this
\starttest
{\switchtobodyfont[20pt]\bf Test} This is a test \input knuth
\stoptest
Hans, can \switchtobodyfont be modified so that it also works for relative
font size (a,b,c,x,xx)? Also something is wrong with location=left|right
and titles.
\defineenumeration[test][location=left,title=yes]
\test {A very very long title string} \input knuth
The title is not taken into accound while calculating the hanging (mainly
because, I did not even consider this case while adding support for titles). I
am not sure how the output should look in this case. Should the width of title
be taken into account while calculating the hanging width, or should the title
be placed with the rest of the enumeration?
